Update

Okay forgive me for not blogging please. I've been writing and spending time with hubby and the dogs and the TV. I have no idea what I said last time I made a post but I figured I would check in.

I am now nine weeks and some odd days pregnant. Everything seems to be going fine. I have a lot of hip pain sometimes to the point where I can't move, and my amazing hubby helps me up and stuff. I am off the progesterone! Yay! And my next appointment is November 7th. That isn't that far off from now is it? Mostly I'm just scatterbrained right now. I need to go have blood work done but I keep forgetting! It's just for STD's since the Specialist didn't run those, and I know I don't have any, hubby was my first, and he's been tested so no STD's for us. Yay right? But I have been having Round ligament pain. which is made worse by the constipation I had the other day. I feel a lot better today though. Still no morning sickness, but I don't expect it.

Since I don't remember posting since after my ultrasound I'll update you on my appointment with my normal OB. Not a whole lot happened they don't have stuff that can hear the baby tell ten weeks. And there really wasn't anything for her to do other then inform me that I had gained basically two pounds since they weighed me there. I actually lost a pound and half from what the specialist's scale said on my first visit there. I want to gain as little as possible as I'm already over weight. She told me what hospitals they deliver at and neither or them allow water births as far as I could see. I kind of want to give that a try but I know that even if I switched OB's to the hospital that does do them I might not be able to do it anyway. All I really want to be able to do is get up and walk around the room, take a shower/bath, sit on one of those gigantic balls while I'm getting to the pushing part. I don't want to be tire to my bed, I want to have a natural birth and I deal with pain best by moving around. SO if I can't do that at either hospital they deliver at then I'll probably switch to a different OB with a hospital that lets me do that, or maybe even a midwife but I'm not sure if my insurance covers that, which matters a lot.

But I think that's about it.
